Revealed via todays Nintendo Direct mini, Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope has a release date. The tactical title will arrive on Nintendo Switch as of October 20, 2022.
This particular Mario + Rabbids game will act as a sequel to 2017 title, Mario + Rabbids Kingdom of Hope. The predecessor follows Mario and friends, as well as some friendly Rabbids, as they attempt to save Mushroom Kingdom from a belligerent group of Rabbids that have fallen victim to a powerful mind-control device they stumbled across.
Sparks of Hope, on the other hand, gets incredibly intergalactic. When a dark, mysterious entity known as Cursa tries to claim the energy of titular Sparks (creatures formed by fusing Lumas and Rabbids together), the universe is thrown into disrepair. As per usual, it is up to Mario and his friends to travel various worlds and thus, save the galaxy from Cursa.
